Standing next to the shooter that day in June 2000 was Queens drug kingpin Kenneth "Supreme" McGriff, who helped fund the record label with dirty cash, prosecutors said.

McGriff was in a Murder Inc. office later that day, taunting the shooter for not finishing the job, prosecutors said. The suspected gunman, whose identity has not been revealed, was later assigned to protect Ja Rule, a star for the label, now called The Inc.

The U.S. Attorney’s Office wants the judge presiding over the Murder Inc. money-laundering case, which begins tomorrow in Brooklyn federal court, to allow them to bring up all of the supposed shady connections between McGriff, the Lorenzo brothers and 50 Cent.

They’ve got to be kidding me. I guess this may be news to the conservative, Rethuglican demographic that The Post caters to, but not to the 8 million or so people who’ve heard 50’s first album. I can’t help but laughing reading this shit, especially this: "The suspected gunman, whose identity has not been revealed".

Get a grip, everybody knows it was Darryl ‘Hommo’ Baum, notorious Brooklyn stick up man and associate of the real 50 Cent and Mike Tyson. You would think that The Post would know this since they reported that Baum was the shooter a month ago on the same day that SOHH and AHH ran similar stories! That’s that good NY tabloid journalism for you.

For this post and your earlier post about Queen Reigns Supreme being something like ‘Ghetto Qu’ran’ in book form you more than deserve a complimentary book. E-mail me your contact info. and I’ll send one right out…
